How to Become a Black Market Tycoon

65 episodes

In all, 50 drug gambler hunters were drawn in and dispersed into three guilds.

Now, these three guilds are running the Beksul Fruit Seasoning Factory in three shifts.

Of course, they were forced to accept my proposal by intimidation, but when the factory starts to work in earnest, they will change their minds from then on.

The power and money that comes from the scarcity of being the only organization that supplies the seasoning for Snow White will be sweet.

For that, I was going to give them generously as much as I earn.

As the saying goes, the people starve, but the soldiers do not. In order for an organization to return to normal, proper treatment is necessary.

“president.”

Jaejin Lee looked at me and said.

“Isn’t that a little dangerous?”

“what?”

“Unlike before, this is completely illegal. I was worried that it might harm the boss.”

I said with a smile.

“danger? what’s dangerous Do you think that I will investigate the Snow White Fruit Organization?”

“I wonder if that could be the case.”

“Our Jaejin is still naive. There are many ways to hide secrets in the world. Wrapping it up tightly and burying it on the floor without anyone knowing…”

I said, pointing my finger at the sky.

“To lift it up to the sky so no one can touch it.”

“What do you mean?”

“Now the black market for condiment for snow white. Do you think anyone doesn’t know that I made it? Especially among the upper class?”

There is no evidence.

But heartbreak is enough.

I am the one who has dominated the region more thoroughly than anyone else.

But a black market that I didn’t even know existed in my land, so it’s doing business?

Does that make sense?

Drug sellers and drug dealers are secretly dealing with drugs, but they are also doing business by opening stores.

It means that if I wanted to catch it, I would have caught it earlier.

But it goes back without a hitch?

Then, do you think that you are doing business without being discovered by me, or do you think that you are doing business with my permission?

Of course it’s the latter.

In other words, it is said that the high-class people with intelligence would not be sure, but would raise a reasonable degree of suspicion enough for ordinary people who do not know the details of the situation.

Then you should hide it in the sky, not on the ground.

Anyone who sees it seems like a giant to me, but I can’t reach out and touch it.

That’s basically what the black market is.

It’s illegal and the business is good, but no one dares to touch it.

And it’s the same with snow white seasoning tissue.

This is nothing but the last breath of the upper class.

And will the upper classes, who are well aware of it, stay still when crackdowns or investigations are taking place?

In other words, unless there is a new alternative, the black market and snow white fruit organization will have no choice but to receive the tacit protection of the upper classes while floating in the sky.

Then my cell phone started ringing.

An unknown number appeared on the screen.

“yes. This is Jeong In-soo.”

– Nice to meet you. I’m from the Senate group Nowon-gu.

I said with a smile.

“ah. Chairman Noh Won-gu. This is how I greet you. This is Jung In’s Jung In-soo.”

-okay. I’ve been wanting to meet you for a while, but I’m a little sorry for contacting you in this way.

“no.”

Correspondence from Chairman Nowon-gu, who has nothing to do with it.

Isn’t the reason obvious?

-It’s not that different, I’m just going to ask you a favor.

“You tell me.”

– Get me some seasoning.

I said with a smirk.

“It’s seasoning. What do you mean by that…”

– Let’s not do this to each other. The seasonings sold in your land. That’s yours.

I shrugged and said.

“I don’t deal with that. I am only moving within the bounds of the law.”

– Hmm… is it really going to come out like this?

“It’s not really like this, I don’t know anything about it.”

Chairman Noh Won-gu, who was silent for a moment, said.

– I’m serious.

“I hate risky things. I am very old and I still have a lot to live for. I heard rumors that there are people selling secretly, so why not buy it there?”

Chairman Noh Won-gu, who was silent for a moment, said.

-okay. then it won’t But the quantity is too small.

“Maybe there will be a little more in the near future. When a shortage occurs due to a shortage of goods, it is not the basics of entrepreneurs to expand the factory and increase the supply. Of course, I’m not doing it, but maybe that’s what I’m doing.”

When he spoke with the shichimi, Chairman Noh Won-koo said with a smirk.

– Will the quantity increase? So do you live there?

“Again, this is a fact that I do not know. and···”

I said raising the corners of my lips.

“Wouldn’t it be better if the president didn’t even know?”

What I meant was simple.

It means pretending not to know each other and just trading with subordinates or merchants as we do now.

It’s a seasoning that disappears if you eat it anyway, and if you eat it, there’s no proof, so how good it is to get away with it.

Transactions are made on the black market and the crimes are also ended on the black market.

The black market merchants who sold the goods and the customers who directly bought the goods.

-···great. Then wait one more time.

After talking on the phone with Chairman Nowon-gu, I smiled and said:

“I’m bored. I was bored.”

I know and everyone knows that I am distributing the seasoning for snow white fruit.

But everyone pretends not to know and trades through the black market.

And that silence is the foundation of the black market.

“Jaejin.”

“Yes.”

“Go to the outpost from time to time and take care of it. Everyone is still new, so it may be awkward, but I have to take care of them warmly.”

“Ugh.”

A hunter said as he picked up the blanched snow white fruit with a sieve.

“What am I doing right now…”

“So.”

These are all hunters who started working at the Yongin outpost after being threatened by Jung In-soo.

“f*ck. I really didn’t expect the hidden camera…”

“I was aiming, I was aiming. That thorough bastard couldn’t have just done it.”

Hunter said, grinding his teeth.

“Aren’t you supposed to tell the other hunters about this?”

Then the fellow Hunter shook his head and said.

“Arthur. Arthur. Let’s wait one year.”

The conditions for Jung In-soo were simple.

Keeping all secrets and working for one year, all evidence will be deleted.

“Are you going to destroy the real evidence?”

“…I don’t know.”

“driving me crazy.”

Then a Hunter said with a smile.

“No. stupid bastards You know what we’re doing is illegal, right? If you gossip after a year, you don’t have to threaten me by saying that I’ll expose all of this.”

Then a hunter sighed and said,

“ha. We’re already on the same boat, so wouldn’t it be more of a loss to us if we revealed it? We have plus other evidence here.”

“So, we just agreed to threaten…”

Hunter, who continued to speak like that, said in a moment of surprise.

“…By the way, isn’t there a hidden camera here too?”

Then, the hunters all looked around in awe.

“Let’s all take care of our mouths.”

“okay.”

The seasoning factory has finally started rolling in earnest.

It was simple to make.

Just boil it and make it into a powder.

The problem was to pass the checkpoint in front of the dungeon as well.

It’s similar to sugar, but isn’t it strange that there are no hunters who take ingredients to cook in the dungeon?

So, I learned all kinds of smuggling know-how from a former member of a drug smuggling organization, whom I met through the introduction of Jang Cheol-ho, and applied it equally.

Jaejin Lee put the backpack in front of me and said.

“I have received it.”

I said with a smile.

“Good work. Didn’t you get caught?”

“Yes. We checked whether there was any attempt to bring it in in the form of powder, and it was said that it was possible to take it out without any problems as only the fruits were found.”

I opened my backpack and pulled out a piece of leather.

“Let’s see···”

At first glance, it looks like plain leather.

However, this leather was actually two thin layers of leather attached to it.

Of course, it was filled with seasonings spread thinly in between.

And then a piece of soap.

“It came out pretty well.”

Similarly, this soap has been dug out and filled with seasoning.

Other than that, the methods were endless, such as compressing the seasoning into a mold to make it look like a different shape, or taking an empty device and filling it with seasoning.

“Total 3 kg.”

An amount equivalent to 600 million won in market value.

“Is the supply of snow white berries okay?”

“Yes.”

Before it became illegal, rumors circulated that it was a lot of money, and only cactus monsters were hunted tenaciously, but now they can’t come out until they catch them, so they don’t even care about the hunters who are already addicted to seasonings and hunters who have been commissioned.

In my mind, I would like to purchase fruits from ordinary hunters, but it is premature.

“I should give everyone a bonus.”

Hot enough to blow away all my other thoughts.

The market has successfully settled.

After hearing the rumors, customers flocked from all over the country and merchants screaming in applause at the huge sales.

Naturally, I was struck by lightning while standing on top of the merchants’ heads.

The daily supply increased from 3 kg to 15 kg, and the daily net income reached 1.5 billion won from seasoning alone.

Again, illegal is money.

With 45 billion won in one month, I boasted the most overwhelming net income among all the businesses I have ever done.

Even though it’s just the beginning, it’s like this.

Of course, the margins of the slime slime factory are so unusually low, but that’s the case for now.

Having made so much money, I gave some of this net income to the seasoning organization hunters, and the hunters who received the money were amazed.

It was worth it because I paid 2.5 times the amount they earned when they hunted monsters every day.

The reaction of the disgruntled hunters was slightly different when he stabbed them with bonuses from time to time.

At first, I felt dissatisfied with the fact that I had to do illegal things due to intimidation and at the same time I had to stay in the dungeon for a long time, but there is no danger because the Jungin Guild takes care of the dangerous monsters in the vicinity from time to time, and the Jungin Guild takes care of the boss monsters as soon as they appear.

There is no need to deal with monsters dangerously, just blanching, drying, and pulverizing snow-white fruits. All other time is free, and the income is much better than the original, so I started to think that it was a surprising thing to do.

Anyway, the situation is getting more and more stable both internally and externally.

When the situation became like this, the other people living in the back alley could not stand still.

A few of my cousins suddenly make a ton of money and talk shit, but my stomach hurts.

I took advantage of the gap and continued to extend new branches, and now the point tissue was gradually spreading throughout the back alley.

But the bigger you get, the more flies get entangled.

“interview?”

“Yes.”

Secretary Kim said with a troubled expression.

“I’m down there right now and I’m reluctant to say that I want to keep interviewing the CEO.”

“Hmm···”

I have a feeling it may not have come from a good reason.

But it’s something that will happen someday.

I thought for a while and said.

“I’m telling you to come in. do the trick interview.”

“Thank you for agreeing to the interview.”

The woman reporter said with her eyes shining brightly.

“Can I take some pictures first?”

“That’s right.”

The cameraman behind me started taking some pictures of me.

“Hmm···”

After taking all the pictures, the female reporter spread out her laptop in front of her and said,

“Now, let’s start the interview.”

“Yes.”

“First of all, I want to know what CEO Jung’s secret to success is.”

Suddenly the secret to success.

Was it really out of curiosity?

nope

But first, let’s adjust to the rhythm.

“I just worked hard, but sometimes luck came along. I don’t think it’s because my abilities are special.”

“That’s right.”

Useless questions that follow.

I answered each of these questions as faithfully as possible.

“Thank you for answering the question.”

“Are you done?”

“No, I have a few more questions…”

The reporter said with her eyes shining.

“Do you know anything about snow white fruit?”

Now that’s the gist.

“Of course I do.”

“I heard that you were the first person to buy snow white fruit…”

“you’re right.”

“May I know why?”

I said with a casual expression.

“When there is a new dungeon, I first secure all the objects and then research by all means. Snow White was also discovered in the process. that it has a heavenly taste. So I started collecting money, confident that it would make money.”

The woman said as she typed on her laptop.

“That’s right. So, did you know about the side effects?”

“I didn’t know that.”

“You didn’t know… Anyway, he was the first to buy it, so he must have owned that much, right?”

The reporter smiled and said.

“How is everything?”

“Before the ban, most of them were sold, and some of the remaining inventory was confiscated by the government.”

It was real to be confiscated.

Of course, it is a very small amount.

“Really? Isn’t it possible that you have hidden the stock of snow white fruit and are selling it little by little?”

Are you completely blatant now?

If that’s the case, then I’ll have to go blatantly.

“You’re talking too round and round. I don’t think that’s what I’m asking.”

“···like. Let me ask you directly. I heard rumors that they are selling snow-white seasoning in the container area of Dangjin Dungeon City right now.”

It doesn’t make sense to say that so many people come and go, and the rumors don’t go out.

“Yes.”

“Isn’t that the snow white fruit that CEO Jung hid?”

how will we do it.

The processing method is simple.

Either press the newspaper to which this reporter belongs, or press the woman around her.

Of course, not me, but the wealthy who need Snow White.

Even if I don’t have to use my hands, they’re supposed to go out on their own.

That’s why it’s so important to them that this place is the only source of snow white fruit.

taken from noblemt l

Maybe even the head of a newspaper company is an addict of snow white fruit, so it could be something that never happened from the beginning.

But will that stop the rumors?

Absolutely not.

Because this here is just the beginning, the people who will be interested in this work are endless.

If so, I’d rather see a face-to-face match here.

“Not me.”

“If it’s not me, you know that there are trades there. Are you saying this?”

I thought for a while and said.

“Yes. I know.”

The reporter said with her eyes shining.

“Then you know it and let it go…”

“However.”

I said with a firm expression on my face, closing my eyes.

“I also had no choice. To be more precise, it would be correct to say that I couldn’t use my hands at all. Do you know what kind of situation they were in? All of them were on the edge of a precipice, driven by the harshness of society. Those people are struggling to make a living.”

that’s not wrong

Whether they rented out their house and their keys and offered them as a trading place to receive money, or carrying snow-white seasoning and running errands, they are now completely entrenched in their lives.

A level at which at least one member of the family is involved in this work.

In other words, now in their lives, the snow-white fruit was a string of hope.

And that was exactly what I intended.

The black market is the only breath of hope for the poor and the wealthy.

And with them in front, they blur the essence of the subject.

“Reporter.”

A bewildered reporter said with a bewildered expression that it was an unexpected change.

“···Yes?”

“It was me who called them all together. Just because they struggle to live, I’m sorry to throw them away again… I’ll never be able to do that. That’s why I’m still.”
